WALNUT, CA — The East Los Angeles College wrestling team is without a win in dual meet competition, but Husky freshman heavyweight Brandon Sotomayor (Centennial HS) remains undefeated after the Mt. San Antonio College Duals held today.

Sotomayor 4-0 overall, recorded two falls in heavyweight matches at Mt. SAC in team losses to West Hills College, 24-19, and Mt. SAC, 34-15. Sotomayor has recorded three pins to date.

The Huskies showed improvement since their opening competition in Bakersfield. ELAC’s five-point loss to West Hills is a better than the 16-point ELAC 35-9 loss to the Eagles in Bakersfield.

Sophomore Jonathan Mandujano (Monrovia HS), who went 0-4 in Bakersfield, turned it around at Mt. SAC and finished the day with three wins and one loss.
